Question

Which of the following accurately describes the overall trend in computing during the past 70-plus yearsa.
a. Toward physically larger, more powerful computers.
b. Toward physically larger, less powerful computers.
c. Toward physically smaller, less powerful computers.
d. Toward physically smaller, more powerful computers.
e. Toward physically smaller, single-use computers.

Answer 1

By simply reducing its size the computer can be speedier as indicated above, the concept of Einstein that messages can not spread faster than light speeds gives one of the limits to how quickly computers can work.

• The computers have to become smaller to make them quicker.
• Therefore, Toward represents the total trend in the last 70+ years physically smaller, more powerful machines perfectly.

The wrong choice can be defined as follows:

• For option a, it is wrong because physically larger computers acquire larger space.
• For option b, it is wrong because physically larger computers are acquiring in a larger space and it is more powerful.
• For option c, it is wrong because a small computer acquires a small space but it is less powerful as compared to physically larger.
• For option e, it is wrong because it is also known as a microcomputer that is powerful for both single and multiple users.

Therefore "Option d" is correct.
